How far can an RFID be read from?

Generally speaking RFID tag maximum read distances are as follows: 125 kHz. and 134.3 kHz. Low Frequency (LF) Passive RFID Tags -read distance of 30 cm (1 foot) or less – usually 10 cm (4 inches) unless you are using a very large tag which can have a read distance of up to 2 meters when attached to metal.

How big is an RFID microchip?
